Quant Co

Quant Co wrote: Power industry needs a smart grid which can integrate renewable energy efficiently at scale without having to keep polluting power stations online to manage intermittency. This requires energy storage to act as a buffer, reducing demand when supply is low or increasing when it is high. But with the ability to store energy, managing the timing of energy use to minimize costs is extremely complex. We create a game-changing solution — a tool with superior intelligence for managing energy storage, for a problem too complex for humans alone to solve. We optimize the timing of energy use like never before... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

RainDrain System

RainDrain System wrote: The raindrain system is a pipeline-based stormwater drainage system. It uses a unique piping scheme that’s highly adaptable and incorporates shallow depths of installations, small pipe diameters and optimum case-by-case design. The relatively affordable cost of the system and its versatility means that this system could be implemented in areas where conventional systems cannot be implemented. For example areas that lack the necessary space of installation and informal/unplanned areas. The system also adopts a communal participatory approach, meaning that the community is one of the key participants in the design, implementation, and operation and maintenance phases...

Intelligent Traffic Control

IT-c wrote: We are it-c (intelligent traffic-control), a hungarian start-up aiming to change the behavior of traffic lights from the current time-based system to a new, live traffic-based solution. Our system receives live traffic data and changes the lights based on live traffic conditions without any restrictions for green-red cycle lengths. It is fully automated which means that only maintenance is required to keep the system working, and we link together the junctions, which creates a network of intersections in the city. It-c aims to accelerate the transition between today’s non-automated traffic and the future’s smart mobility by creating a stabile basis on which all the innovations in mobility can perfectly fit...

M50 Cycleway

M50 Cycleway wrote: The epa estimates that 1,800 people die prematurely every year in the republic of ireland due to poor air quality. A monitoring station near heuston station, at st. John’s road west measured the worst air quality in 2018, largely due to our reliance on fossil-fuelled motor vehicle transport. As parts of dublin city centre are likely to breach eu and the who guidelines for air quality in 2019, our idea purposes encouraging cycling as the main mode of transportation in the city center in order to limit vehicular emissions. 25% of dublin workers commute from outside the city and suburbs, while approximately 1,150,000 people commute to work via car every day in ireland...

Device that produce water from the air

Water Cloud wrote: We have done research on the global water crisis. Our solution is device that produces water from air and that not only for general applications but it can also be used for farming. The device can produce 30 litres of water per hour if the air humidity is at 60%. Our team consist of 4 members. We offer our customers a multifunctional device for a good price, that improves the social mission... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

Flood Risk assessment

GeoRisk wrote: Georisk is a web service application which provides flood risk predictive models to identify potential future flooded areas. The implemented algorithm is disruptive and supplies essential and unprecedented geospatial information with the aim of supporting insurance, reinsurance and catastrophe modeling companies in saving costs and introducing efficiencies in their business processes. These innovative risk models are developed relying on deep learning cloud architectures applied to copernicus earth observation datasets acquired by the sentinel missions. Georisk is marketed through a monthly subscription with a limited number of area risk assessment analysis allowed for each license and at different levels of spatial/temporal resolution...

EasyGy

EasyGy wrote: Easygy is a platform called to empower people in the fight against climate change, creating a digital platform that allows them to know their energy consumption in real time in their homes, thus facilitating their decision-making and implementation of efficiency measures to reduce their co2 emissions saving costs along the way. The problem of domestic energy efficiency has an added difficulty: individual to individual, home to home must be tackled. Our vision is to offer a solution to this issue through information technologies and the creation of an ecosystem that, involving governments, companies and people, stops the reduction of emissions related to domestic energy efficiency.

Temperature sensitive ink

Mysteria Colorum - MyCol wrote: About quarter of temperature sensitive food is wasted due to improper storing temperature, and still we may have troubles with low quality and unsafe food. Our solution is producing temperature sensitive ink and printing colour-changing labels. Food producers will use them on each individual temperature-sensitive product to indicate if it was not overheated. This will help preventing food waste during storing and transport and enable consumers to trust in the food quality... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

Innovative eco-sustainable cement

A.G.MA. wrote: The external insulation system reduces energy waste and maintains an ideal temperature longer inside buildings. The insulation of buildings is expensive and the products on the market do not last long at high temperatures, which makes the currently used materials not accessible to a large portion of the population. Agma unlike other manufacturers of insulating materials, produces cement foam panels through an innovative process that reduces the price by 55%. The panels are fireproof and high temperatures resistant, giving greater security to homes. The price of the product is competitive because we use fly ash as a raw material, a waste product from thermoelectric plants... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad
